Swaziland

The Kingdom of Swaziland is a landlocked sovereign state within South Africa.  Mozambique is to the east, and South Africa is its only other border. The capital is Mbabane.  In 1894 Swaziland became a Protectorate of the South African Republic.  It became a British Protectorate from 1903 until 1967 when it regained its independence.  The country is an absolute monarchy ruled by King Mswati III since 1986.

The first stamps of Swaziland were issued in 1889 overprinted Transvaal, or the South African Republic.  Since independence, many of the issues show a portrait of the King of Swaziland.
